1 One- and Two-Family Standard Garage Slab and Foundation Wall Details for use with the 2012 International Residential Code (IRC) INFORMATION BULLETIN NO October 1, 2012 City Planning & Development - Development Services City of Kansas City, Missouri As a customer service initiative, the Kansas City, Missouri, City Planning and Development Department/Development Services, in cooperation with the Greater Kansas City Home Builders Association, has developed the attached standard foundation and structural slab details for use in all one- and two-family dwellings permitted under the 2006 International Residential Code (IRC). These standard details will be accepted by CPD-DS for slabs and foundations meeting the dimensions and design parameters specified herein. The standard slab details address suspended slabs and slabs on non-engineered fill. The standard foundation wall details address foundation walls subject to unbalanced fill conditions. Please note that these are standard details and all customers may exercise the option of following the prescriptive requirements of the 2012 IRC or may provide a design prepared by a licensed professional engineer. See the IRC for additional information. See CPD-DS Information Bulletin 100 for Requirements for 1 & 2 Family Dwelling plan submittals. 1

2 SOILS This standard is based on undisturbed soil conditions, with assumed soil values of 2000 psf load bearing capacity and 60 pcf (60 psf/ft) equivalent fluid pressure. Construction on fill materials or the use of alternative soil values is acceptable where based on a site-specific geotechnical evaluation performed by a licensed professional engineer. Other unusual site conditions may also require geotechnical evaluation. [IRC Chapter 4] CONCRETE Concrete strength shall comply with the following minimum strength requirements at 28 days [IRC R402.2]: 2,500 psi for basements floor slabs on undisturbed grade. 3,000 psi for footings, foundation walls, and other vertical concrete. 3,500 psi for carport and garage floor slabs on undisturbed grade. 3,500 psi for structural floor slabs. Concrete shall be 6% (+/- 1%) air-entrained for garage slabs and for all locations footings, walls or flatwork where exposed to weather. Rebar shall be minimum 40 ksi unless noted otherwise. Minimum concrete cover for reinforcement (per ACI 318): Cast against earth Exposed to weather Not exposed to weather 3 #5 or smaller 1 ½ Slabs ¾ (u.n.o.) 2

3 FOOTINGS Exterior walls, bearing walls, columns and piers shall be supported on continuous solid masonry or concrete footings, or other approved structural system to safely support the imposed loads and shall be sized and reinforced in accordance with this standard or shall be engineered designed. Footings under foundation walls shall be continuous around the structure and from one level to the next. The continuous transitions between footings at different levels enclosing usable space shall be made by approved solid jumps or support systems to provide safe support of the structure. See Typical Footing/Foundation Wall/Standard Slab at Maximum 4 Overdig and Footing Jump diagrams for more detail. The bottom of all footings shall extend not less than 36 below grade for frost protection. Footings for freestanding accessory structures with an area of 600 square feet or less and an eave height of 10 feet or less shall extend below grade a minimum of 12. [IRC R ] REQUIRED FOOTING: BUILDING HEIGHT MINIMUM FOOTING SIZE HORIZONTAL REBAR LOCATION OF REBAR 2 Stories or less 8 t x16 w 2-#4 3 from bottom 3 Stories 8 t x 24 w 2-#4 3 from bottom Accessory Structure 8 t x 12 w 2-#4 3 from bottom MINIMUM REINFORCEMENT FOR ISOLATED FOOTING/COLUMN PADS (pad size determined based on actual load supported) PAD SIZE 36 x36 x12 42 x42 x14 48 x48 x16 60 x60 x18 REINFORCING 6-#4 each way 7-#4 each way 8-#4 each way 9-#4 each way FOOTING JUMP DETAIL: 3

6 DAMPPROOFING One coat (minimum) of damp proofing or equivalent foundation membrane shall be applied to exterior wall surfaces below grade [IRC R406.1]. Waterproofing in accordance with IRC section is not required unless a ground water investigation indicates that excessive hydrostatic pressure, a high water table, or other severe soil-water conditions are known to exist. FOUNDATION DRAINAGE Installation of a continuous foundation drain is required where habitable or usable space for any portion of the structure is located below grade. The foundation drain shall be at or below the area being protected. Drainage tile shall be placed with positive or neutral slope to minimize the accumulation of deposits in the drainage pipe. Placement of drain tile directly on top of the footing is acceptable. [IRC R405] See Typical Footing/Foundation Wall/Standard Slab at Maximum 4 Overdig and Foundation Drain Detail at Raised Slab diagrams for details. 6

7 FOUNDATION ANCHORAGE Sill plates shall be bolted to the foundation wall with a minimum ½ diameter anchor bolts embedded at least 7 inches into the concrete. Bolts shall be spaced no greater than 6 feet on center. There shall be a minimum of two bolts per plate section, with a bolt placed within 12 inches, and not closer than 7 bolt diameters, of the end of each plate section. A properly sized nut and washer shall be tightened on each bolt to the plate. (NOTE: 7 embedment + 1 ½ sill plate + 3/4 for nut and washer exceeds a 9 long bolt.) [IRC R ] Please note that wall bracing methods per IRC R602 may require additional anchorage. VAPOR RETARDER (VAPOR BARRIER) A 6 mil polyethylene or approved vapor retarder with joints lapped a minimum of 6 is required between the concrete floor slab and the base course or prepared subgrade. (Not required for garage slabs or detached accessory buildings.) [IRC R ] FOUNDATION AND LOT GRADING Grades shall be sloped away from the foundation a minimum of 6 inches in the first 10 feet. Alternate approaches may be approved if the alternate design is equivalent in effectiveness and performance, and provides for positive site drainage. [IRC R401.3] 7

8 STRUCTURAL SLABS This section applies to concrete slabs placed on fill material which exceeds 24 inches of compacted granulated material (sand or gravel) or 8 inches of earth. This may occur at garage floor fills, or over excavated areas under floor slabs. The design and installation details in this document (where applicable based on size and spacing limitations) may be used in lieu of providing a separate design. Structural slabs exceeding the spans and conditions of the approved details shall be designed by a Missouri registered design professional. SLABS AT MAXIMUM 4 OVERDIG ADJACENT TO FOUNDATION WALL Where the soil is excavated for a maximum dimension of 4 horizontally adjacent to a foundation wall, the Standard Overdig Detail may be used in lieu of a complete structural slab. See Typical Footing/Foundation Wall/Standard Slab at Maximum 4 Overdig diagram for details. PORCH SLABS Elevated porch slabs spanning 6 0 or less in any one direction can be constructed as follows. See Standard Porch Slab diagram for details. Maximum span = 6. Minimum 6 thickness. #4 bars at 12 on center each way. Minimum 1-1/2 of continuous bearing at the edges of the slab. Elevated porch slabs spanning greater than 6 0 shall be treated as an elevated garage slab. STANDARD PORCH SLAB 8
